Sometimes a temple of the heavens (and perhaps one of The 7 Masons) visits an Earth temple.
When you get your eye adjusted you can see the extra pavement some distance above the physical pavement.
I was in such a situation a few months ago. Several other brethren could inwardly see it too when pointed out.
Our lodge had its last meeting for the year last night. I tried your suggested experiment. Despite having ample opportunity to sink into 'that' zone, I just could not see what you saw. There were quite a few 'sparklies' around, but nothing super special about the pavement, which I couldn't describe as after vision. An interesting thing about the sparklies, was that another Bro saw at least one of them also... exactly the same place and time. And the closing light was very strong.

Some distance above means just that. If the Earthly temple is only somewhat compatible with the temple in the heavens, the attracted pavement may actually be above the heads of the brethren.
If compatibility is good, the celestial pavement may be less than a meter above the physical pavement.
Re Orion and JC... this might be one way of looking at it..
All 48 constellation figures from Enoch depict the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The star figures in the sky form a very precise map of the heavens and display many allegories which have been preserved as Greek myths. But much more than that, the Book of Enoch states that the angel Uriel revealed them to the prophet Enoch, long before the Great Flood. When he came to understand their meaning, it records that he exclaimed,
I blessed the Lord of glory, who had made those great and splendid signs, that they might display the magnificence of his works to angels and to the souls of men; and that these might glorify all his works and operations; might see the effect of his power; might glorify the great labor of his hands; and bless him forever." — Enoch 35:3
(Thus, the meaning of the symbols of the constellations discussed in this article refer to the context of the life, mission and gospel of Jesus Christ. In another context, they could (and do) have an entirely different meaning.)
Daniel's description of the Son of Man fits the pattern of stars in the constellation Orion! Orion is the most brilliant of all the constellations, and contains 78 stars. Even the Son of Man has the same dominating presence. In the book of Revelation the Lamb refers to Jesus as well, but despite the mention of the Twelve Gates of the great celestial city (the traditional pearly gates), the Lamb is not Aries as one might think, or even Capricorn, but actually Orion, while the "glory of God," also mentioned, refers to the constellation of Ophiuchus.
Revelation 22:1-3 makes a connection between Ophiuchus and Orion, just as a connection between the two exists even in Greek mythology:
He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants serve him.
The "river of water of life, clear as crystal," is the Milky Way, which runs under the feet of Ophiuchus and over the outstretched arm of Orion! Orion is the sacrificed "Lamb," who will come again to sit at the right hand of the Father after he has passed through the valley of death (the Parousia or Second Coming).
..a river of water of life, ...On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. ...
The "river of water of life, clear as crystal," is the Milky Way,
The expression "for the healing of nations" I came across in meditation long ago. The white unicorn was for the healing of nations. The white unicorn in legend is milk white and thus may be associated with the Milky Way.
I thought therefore, Lorraine, that your conjunction of the healing of nations with the Milky Way might be more than coincidence.
